New for 2006, LightPointe’s FlightStrata HD is designed specifically for high-definition broadcast video and embedded audio for HDTV. The FlightStrata HD provides point-to-point, wireless HDTV-quality digital video streams for remote HDTV camera coverage of news, sporting events and live entertainment. The FlightStrata HD is engineered to deliver raw data rates for full uncompressed HDTV signal transmission during live or taped HDTV shoots in the field. The new FlightStrata HD offers true throughput of fiber-optics transmission without the time-consuming and difficult process of pulling permanent or temporary cabling.

With full-duplex throughput of 1.485Gbps, the FlightStrata HD is compatible with the HDTV Serial Digital Interface (HD-SDI) transmission industry standard (SMPTE-292M). This custom full compatibility of the FlightStrata HD allows the highest quality, real-time HDTV video feeds at recommended distances up to 750 meters between a remote HDTV camera and production studio facility or remote satellite truck.

The FlightStrata HD also incorporates multi-beam transmission, auto tracking, Optical Beam Shaping (OBS) and Automatic Power Control (APC)—features that ensure the most reliable connections. The combination of product features makes the FlightStrata HD the optimal license-free wireless connectivity choice for remote transmission of HDTV signals for HDTV broadcast programming.
